Breakthrough

O Lord help me to understand even tho perfection is what I seek

I could never be like thee...yeah,

I was beautifully made but I got limitations you beseech me naw,

I beseech you search my heart you'll find it belongs to you

I long for you cuz sometimes I feel so outta touch,

I spent so many days in the flesh I feel addicted to the lust...of this world

and @ times I feel like I'll never find a girl who gets me,

I could never find a love like yourz evidently but you took my rib and lately

I been so lonely so I'm just waiting for you to reunite us

back together so in you we can live in holy matrimony...

I understand I'm finite, there's no such thing as a perfect Christian,

I understand my sins are forgiven but still I'm a wretched man

hear my cry O Lord I know that you're listening,

I struggle wit submission like Adam & Eve...I struggle to love my brethen

like Cain & Abel give me a new heart cuz this one aint stable.

my mind is losing it, I'm so afraid to make a mistake so

when I grieve the spirit I hang my head low because I doubt anyone can relate to me.

Psalms 51 Lord break and restore me, no...kill me but resurrect you,

because If I'm seeking the kingdom and all its righteousness

I know truly in this world I'll have nothing to lose...
